it's why all the new-build developments are filled with franchises rather than independent spots bc the owners trust franchises to pay rent

They'll do what they think they can get away with. In 2020 we had videos of cops pepper spraying bystanders on their own porches/balconies

This is a full standoff between LA civilians and ICE now. The civilians are in control of the exit. ICE is mobbed up unable to leave. Civilians continue to barricade them in and all vehicle exits.

Look, you have an immediate bloody logical fallacy here--you claim I'm insane in the brain but also that I've got none. Well which is it, bucko??

It's also a misunderstanding of what "ideology" means. Trump is obviously not the kind of guy who sits down to flesh out his ideology in a grand manifesto. But he has a very clear view of how society should be ordered, how power and status should be distributed, and who should be at the top.
